Multi-position electrical switch and spring biasing means for universal-type actuator

J Roeser
TLDR
A multi-position electrical switch assembly with an elongated actuator means contains resilient means normally biasing the actuator mean to a center off position as mentioned in this paper, which is pivotally movable between a centre off position to a plurality of switch on positions whereby a selected switch is actuated.
Abstract
A multi-position electrical switch assembly with an elongated actuator means contains resilient means normally biasing the actuator means to a center off position. The actuator means is pivotally movable between a center off position to a plurality of switch on positions whereby a selected switch is actuated. The interior of the casing is hermetically sealed by an O-ring disposed below the equatorial line of the actuator means ball and socket joint of the housing.
